Most people find colorful brain scans highly compelling-and yet,
many experts don't. This discrepancy begs the question: What can we
learn from neuroimaging? Is brain information useful in fields such
as psychiatry, law, or education? How do neuroscientists create
brain activation maps and why do we admire them? Casting Light on
The Dark Side of Brain Imaging tackles these questions through a
critical and constructive lens-separating fruitful science from
misleading neuro-babble. In a breezy writing style accessible to a
wide readership, experts from across the brain sciences offer their
uncensored thoughts to help advance brain research and debunk the
craze for reductionist, headline-grabbing neuroscience. This
collection of short, enlightening essays is suitable for anyone
interested in brain science, from students to professionals.
Together, we take a hard look at the science behind brain imaging
and outline why this technique remains promising despite its
seldom-discussed shortcomings.
